NEC's Eco-Friendly MultiSync Displays

NEC Display Solutions launches two new additions to its MultiSync line of monitorsthe EA192M and E201W.

NEC Display Solutions of America, a manufacturer of LCDs and projectors, has launched the newest models in its MultiSync line of LCD monitorsthe 19-inch MultiSync EA192M and 20-inch widescreen MultiSync E201W.

Both monitors come with LED backlighting technology, which NEC says allows less greenhouse gas emissions, and reduces power consumption and heat radiation. In another eco-friendly nod, both models use fewer hazardous materials, more recycled plastics, and are mercury-free.

The EA192M and E201 feature an ambient light sensor, which automatically adjusts the brightness depending on ambient lighting, screen content, or both. Both models have a a VGA port, a DVI-D port, and DisplayPort connectivity. The two also feature an ergonomic stand, with height-adjust, pivot, tilt, and swivel capabilities.

The MultiSync EA192 has a 1,280-by-1,024 native resolution, with a 5:4 aspect ratio. It also sports integrated down-firing speakers and a headphone jack. The MultiSync E201W's widescreen, a new size for the MultiSync E Series, has a 1,600-by-900 native resolution with a 16:9 aspect ratio. Both come with a three-year limited warranty on parts and labor.

The MultiSync EA192M and E201W will be available this month. The EA192M will retail for $239, while the E201W will sell for $199.
